§ 7-2008. Final site development plan review procedures and approval authority.

A.

The zoning administrator shall have approval authority over final site development plans, unless:

1.

The board of supervisors, at its discretion, may require that the final site development plan for a site that was previously granted preliminary approval by the board of supervisors also be submitted to the board of supervisors for review of its compatibility with the preliminary site development plan approval.

2.

The zoning administrator shall submit a final site development plan to the board of supervisors following a recommendation from the planning commission for its review and action if the zoning administrator determines that the final site development plan varies substantially from the approved preliminary site development plan.

B.

The final site development plan shall reflect all those elements approved on the preliminary site plan. In addition, it shall include all notes, statements and stipulations required to be placed on the final site development plan by law or as a condition of approval.

1.

In the case of a planned development, the final site development plan shall conform to the approved master development plan and shall include all of the elements required on a preliminary site development plan.

C.

The final site development shall be submitted to the department of planning and zoning within six (6) months of preliminary site development plan approval or the applicant must file a new application for preliminary site development plan approval.

D.

Upon submittal of the final site development plan, the zoning administrator shall redistribute the plan to all departments/agencies included in the preliminary site development plan review. The plan shall be reviewed for conformity with the approved preliminary site plan and with all other applicable provisions of this ordinance and related ordinances, and other regulations and policies applicable to the site.

E.

The applicant shall be notified of the plan's approval subject to the posting of the required surety, payment of any outstanding fees and any other conditions of approval within forty-five (45) days of the plan's submittal.

F.

In the case of disapproval, the zoning administrator shall set out in writing the reasons for the disapproval and shall also generally identify the corrections or modifications that will permit approval of the plan. Upon disapproval of a final site development plan, the applicant shall have a right of appeal to the planning commission within ten (10) business days of receipt of the written notice of disapproval. The case will be presented at the next regularly scheduled planning commission meeting. The planning commission will make a recommendation to the board of supervisors to either uphold or reverse the decision of the zoning administrator. The decision of the board of supervisors will be final. (7-7-05, 3-20-14; 7-19-18.)
